I have ten trillion licking dog gold

"Mr. Jiang, you shouldn't pay the 5% service fee. We don't have it here."

The guard couldn't help but remind him.

In commercial trade, in addition to killing cooked animals, there is also killing of living animals.

It is easy to understand the concept of price gouging. For example, e-commerce platforms rely on big data on the Internet to make things clear to users. The same product may appear at two different prices under different accounts.

As for killing, it is easier to understand.

Most of the killing of old customers occurs online, while killing of living things is common offline.

Just like now.

As a foreigner who looks young and harmless, Boss Jiang is a typical ideal fat sheep.

I bought some melons on the roadside and asked the vendor to help me cut them. The vendor said he could cut them but he would charge a fee.

There is simply no law here.

The vast majority of people will definitely not be able to accept it.

But when you are out, you won't bother with the details. Besides, as a businessman, Boss Jiang doesn't mind being ripped off as long as things are made clear in advance.

If you don't mention it in advance and then ask for money afterwards, it involves extortion.

The stall owner made a statement in advance, and at least on this point, Jiang Chen felt he could accept it. Besides, he was not alone, and Pei Yunxi was watching from the side. If he wanted to take the food, he had already put it out. The burden was very heavy, so how could he slap himself in the face for a little service fee?

Showing off wealth is shameful.

Being stingy is equally shameful.

"fine."

Jiang Chen said he didn't care and just considered it as a tip. When going out to have fun, what they pursue is emotional value.

It is rare to see materials worth hundreds of thousands at one time in this market, so most people just spend a few hundred to try their luck.

The people around became interested, and gathered around, staring eagerly, seeming to be even more excited than Jiang Chen.

Get on the scale first.

The total weight of the several pieces of raw stones is about 26 kilograms.

Including the service fee, it’s almost 27 RMB.

Jiang Chen swiped his card without blinking.

The people around were becoming more and more jealous. The people who were hanging around here to make money had sharp eyesights more discerning than the other. It was easy for them to tell that this was a real rich man.

After confirming the money had arrived, the stall owner couldn't help but smile. This was definitely a large order that didn't come around often. With the help of the money, his attitude became more attentive and he moved a few pieces of raw materials to the cutting machine.

"Boss, do you guys cut it yourself or should I do it?"

"You do it."

Pei Yunxi definitely doesn’t know how to use a cutting machine, and it’s dangerous.

When it comes to gambling on stones, you don’t have to do it yourself. The most exciting moment is when the result is revealed.

As everyone waited anxiously, the stall owner started with the smallest ingredients.

"Om..."

The cutting machine starts.

Accompanied by a harsh friction sound, the sharp slice cut the five or six kilograms of raw stone. When the raw stone split into two halves, a sigh was heard.

"Oh, it's a big loss."

The cutting machine stops.

The result of the first piece of raw material was not satisfactory, or it could be said to be very unsatisfactory. Not to mention the imperial green, the dull and garbage color was so bad that no one would want it even as scraps.

There is no doubt that this is equivalent to announcing that tens of thousands of dollars have been wasted.

But when it comes to gambling on stones, the essence is gambling.

  The first cut brought out a rare treasure, how can you write a script or a novel?

Jiang Chen didn't care at all, and neither did Pei Yunxi.

"continue."

The stall owner continued to turn on the cutting machine.

Second block.

third block.

Gambling is indeed risky, and the risks are often far greater than the benefits. Although these stall owners did make something out of the so-called best ingredients, it was definitely not enough to cover the cost, let alone use it as gifts for elders, which was embarrassing.

"It seems that your luck is not very good today."

He knows how to pass the buck.

Seeing that the results were not satisfactory, Jiang Chen immediately pushed the responsibility onto Pei Yunxi.

But the key question is whether the other party should take the blame.

Who packed all these materials together?

  And is this a matter of luck?

Luck is ultimately an event of extremely low probability. If you start complaining after opening a few stones, are you here to gamble or to pick up money?

It’s a pity that he is involved in businesses including casinos and hotels, and he has no self-control at all. In comparison, Pei Yunxi is quite patient and looks at the last piece of raw stone that is about to be cut.

That's right.

There is one last piece left.

It is also the largest, heaviest and most expensive piece, weighing more than ten kilograms.

There is still a possibility of a comeback.

The last piece of raw material was undoubtedly the most anticipated highlight. The audience around subconsciously held their breath and stared intently at the cutting machine as it began to spin violently and slowly descended under the operation of the stall owner.

"Bah..."

The sharp sound was like thousands of knives piercing everyone's eardrums, but no one was distracted, and everyone was nervously and eagerly waiting for the result.

"Ugh!!!"

The familiar sighs sounded again and again.

The last piece of raw stone cracked, and one look at the grayish color inside told me it was another waste.

“What a loss.”

The people around him felt sorry for Jiang Chen, and of course, there was also a sense of gloating.

I spent 27 yuan just to buy a bunch of broken stones. I can't say I lost everything, but I can say I lost everything.

Luck doesn't always favor someone.

For big shots, losing money is actually not important and is not a big deal. The key is face.

  How can you keep your face after spending money on a bunch of junk?

Boss Jiang naturally knew that it was definitely not Pei Yunxi's responsibility.

"Didn't you say this was the best material in your stall?"

he asked the stall owner.

The stall owner knew what I meant. His face turned serious and looked even more vicious. “No matter how good the material is, it can’t guarantee a good product. All the stalls are the same.”

This explanation makes sense.

acceptable.

It's a blind box.

Be willing to admit defeat.

Boss Jiang has never been a person who makes trouble. "Do you have any good materials?"

Upon hearing this, the surrounding area was in an uproar, with people whispering and talking about it.

Up.

It's definitely over the top.

It's just like a gambler who loses all his money. It's human nature and nothing to be surprised about. However, in this market, few people gamble so big.

"That's the best stuff."

The stall owner pointed to a pile of garbage on the ground and said, "If you still want to open, I can go to other stalls to get it."

Jiang Chen nodded and glanced at the jade sales area, "Bring all the best materials here."

Thunder comes from the silence.

The onlookers wondered if they had heard it wrong.

Are you planning to buy up all the good materials in the market?!

  Is this a gamble of your belongings?

The stall owner must have encountered such a person for the first time. He was stunned and shocked, looking at Jiang Chen in disbelief.

"All the good stuff? Sure?"

Jiang Chen said calmly, "Hurry up."

If Boss Jiang hadn't already proven his strength with a bunch of garbage, he would definitely be considered a joke or boaster.

Although the stall owner did not look very friendly, he was indeed a businessman. While everyone was still in shock over Boss Jiang's lavish spending, he reacted quickly.

I don't know whether Mr. Jiang and Mrs. Jiang had good luck today, but the stall owner must have had great luck today. A huge fortune fell on his head.

Although his good materials have been sold out, when he encounters such customers, he can collect "referral fees" from other stall owners!

Someone wants to buy all the good stuff in one go.

The news spread quickly.

The whole market was in an uproar.

The stall owners were so excited that they moved their best wares here one by one. More and more people gathered to watch. Soon, there were three layers of people inside and outside, and the stall was blocked.

The four guards performed their duties faithfully, protecting Jiang Chen and the other two tightly, and using their strong bodies to separate the rest of the people.

Get on the scale.

pay.

The cutting machine starts.

The people outside couldn't see anything, so they all tried to find something to stand on.

It is not clear about other places in Myanmar, but this is definitely an unprecedented stone gambling in Kaluzi, and there may never be another one in the future.

If all the good stuff from all the stalls were piled together, the total price would definitely exceed 10 million.

For the jade lovers watching, this is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime carnival, but for the buyers, it is a crazy gamble.

Jiang Chen was like a gambler who had lost all his money, and Pei Yunxi, who didn't have to pay out of her own pocket, should have been able to stay sober and calm, but in fact she failed to persuade him.

Given her personality, she would definitely not interfere with other people's decisions unless they were her lover or relative.

What is Boss Jiang’s famous saying?

——Don’t impose values, don’t interfere with others…

The entire jade market has been paralyzed.

Under the watchful eyes of countless people, pieces of valuable raw materials were cut one after another.

It's crazy.

Also enjoy it.

Of course, this is for the audience, who can enjoy the excitement of having their blood pumping and their heart beating faster without having to spend any money.

As for Boss Jiang's mood, no one knows. At least he appears to be as calm as a rock, showing no emotion.

There is a term in economics called sunk cost.

It means that there is no need to make additional investments for irreparable losses, as that will only cause the losses to continue to expand.

It's like watching a boring movie. A few minutes into the movie you realize it's poorly made and terrible, but because you bought the ticket and don't want to lose money in vain, you force yourself to stay.

The results of it.

Not only did I not recover any losses, but on the contrary, I forced myself to endure two more hours of suffering, wasting precious time.

This effect also applies to the gambling industry.

How many gamblers would gamble their fortunes at the beginning? They would fall into the trap step by step, wanting to win back the money they lost before, but they would end up losing money on sunk costs and falling into an endless abyss.

As a top student who graduated in economics, Boss Jiang seemed to have made the same mistake at this time. The price of the cut raw materials had reached one million, but the value of the things he ordered might be less than ten thousand, which was not even enough to pay the service fee.

"If you just give money away, you can get a little gratitude."

In the noisy environment, the ethereal voice beside him still reached Jiang Chen's ears clearly.

"Why should I spend money? I'm not a philanthropist."

Jiang Chen was calm and composed, and at the same time, confident.

"What's the difference between this and throwing money around?"

It is not difficult to hear that Pei Yunxi's mentality is more pessimistic, or more pragmatic.

And the facts are here.

The pitifully low rate of return makes it hard to believe that these are really top-notch materials.

Or that's how the jade business works.

Just luck.

"Throwing money away is the real waste of money. At least we are getting something now."

reward?

  You mean those broken stones piled up in a pile?

I have to admit that Boss Jiang does have a strong mentality. If he were an ordinary person, he would definitely want to smash these stones now.

"Will you take these things away?"

Pei Yunxi still understands him quite well.

Garbage worth tens of thousands of dollars is not worth the trouble of hauling it.

"There are still so many materials to be opened, why are you in such a hurry?"

Jiang Chen is calm and composed, and he portrays a mature and stable image, or more precisely, a positive and optimistic image.

"This should be a black market. Even if you buy all the raw materials, you may not be able to get a good product."

Pei Yunxi hit the nail on the head.

Duck eggs can only hatch into ducks, not swans.

Do you really think you can find gold by strolling on the beach?

of course.

The probability of the ugly duckling turning into a white swan is not zero, but it is too low, as low as a fairy tale.

You opened a blind box, but others put the things in with their eyes open.

  It is true that our eyes cannot penetrate the surface to see what is inside the raw materials, but how advanced is technology now?

There are numerous auxiliary means.

For example, X-ray.

However, technological means may also make mistakes sometimes. In the end, it is still a matter of probability and luck.

"Even if this is a black market, it's impossible to be foolproof."

Jiang Chen still maintained his confidence and did not get discouraged.

As he was speaking, another 100,000 or 200,000 pieces of silver were shattered by the sharp cutting machine.

"I think your luck is not very good today."

Pei Yunxi replied.

"Liuli told me that a person's luck can be changed through physical means."

Pei Yunxi's eyes wavered and she couldn't help but tilt her head.

She now knew that the woman was not only beautiful and skilled in martial arts, but also a Taoist nun.

Under normal circumstances, people still maintain a sense of respect for sects like Taoism.

Pei Yunxi is also a normal person, so she became curious too.

"how to change?"

Jiang Chen did not treasure his own things, and generously shared: "Luck is like a fraction. The denominator cannot be adjusted by human power, but the numerator can be increased. If five pieces of material are not enough, then ten pieces, and ten pieces are not enough, then twenty... If the numerator is large enough, the probability will increase significantly, and your luck will improve."

Pei Yunxi asked the question very seriously, but fell silent after hearing it.

She was the only one who remained silent.

No swearing.

After talking about all sorts of random things, it all comes down to money.

  It’s like betting on the size of a number in a casino. If you bet small every time, everyone knows that you will win at some point, but what about the cost?

In order to make a profit, the cost of each bet has to increase exponentially, and the more time passes, the more money you need.

Many people go bankrupt before they can hold on until the small number comes out.

of course.

The thickness of the chips should not be a problem for Boss Jiang, but how can gambling be played like this?

"If we can't make anything here, do we have to buy all the raw materials in the whole city?"

"Can you please stop being such a jinx?"

Jiang Chen said as if teaching: "Even if the reality is bleak, don't fall into pessimism. Science has proven that this world is conscious. It will appear the way you think it will, so believe in the power of belief."

It should not be simply influenced by having a Taoist nun in the family.

This is purely insane.

Under the tight mask, Pei Yunxi just pursed her lips, but it was just this brief pause, and then there were huge exclamations from all around.

"Imperial green! Imperial green is out!"

"No, it's not Imperial Green, it looks like Dragon Stone!"

Pei Yunxi was distracted and turned her head slowly. (End of this chapter)
